why cant you wait, One of the biggest things about breeding snakes is Patience.

Why open another thread to ask the same question, have patience

chill and take you time, its only a few months later so not really a big deal. Use the time wisely to make sure you are completely aware of what you are doing. the actual breeding aspect, incubating, sorting the hatchies feeding, the problem feeders and what you are going when its time for you to sell your snakes is there going to be market for them etc.

chances are your pair won't be interested in breeding in November, early spring is the best time to try

Really? Okk, Won't pair them just yet, Just out of curiosity, do snakes have their own sort of body clock inside them, so they know when to breed and stuff, confuses me Thanks x

reffering back to eeji's post and them probably not being interested in november and spring being the best time to try, i'd take that as a yes.

Not meaning to slate you in any way, but Angel looks far too small to breed, how old/big (i.e length, weight) is she?

she might be bigger than she looks as the pic maybe out of date, but just thought I'd clarify.

Pretty sure i said all of the same things you have just been tol, the last time you asked about breeding early.
When i say pretty sure, i mean that i have.
All animals have an internal body clock, they know the seasons, they know the time of year to breed, breeding early means that you wont be hibernating them and therefor not giving them the best possible chance of having a fertile clutch. You bugger it up now, you also screw your chances for doing it at the right time, so just be patient, do it properly, do it right, do it once.

Mine decied to suprised breed in late nov/dec so it's possible. It's probably to do with the house being warmer in the winter than the summer so it might have confused them a bit. I'd wait though, extra time of being prepared and collecting bottle tops and take out tubs.



A very special super, duper thanks for K :3

She does look small in that picture but she is 4ft 2, and is quite heavy, like 700g, but I dont know how old she is
